PAINFUL!

[Don't worry! I too was trying to figure out if maybe it was just me that wasn't getting it...it's not.]

It got my attention!

This is an excerpt from a BBC.com article:

In case if you either missed it or haven't heard about it (which I doubt), here are excerpts from Wednesday night and Thursday night on the David Letterman Show where McCain stood him up.

Brazilian Soccer Player Brutally Murdered

Brazil is in mourning after former Vasco de Gama player Thiago da Silva was brutally tortured and murdered, allegedly by hired assassins on the orders of his ex-girlfriend.

Da Silva, 25, who had been playing for second-division team Estacio de Sa Soccer Club, died in a Rio de Janeiro hospital Wednesday night, six days after being mortally shot in an attack by three men on a soccer field.

According to reports from the local police, the instigator of the crime is da Silva's former girlfriend.

Before he passed away, da Silva was able to tell the police that he had fallen into a trap last Thursday evening, shortly after discussing the end of his relationship with his girlfriend, Alyne Padula.

The former Vasco player was overwhelmed by three people (including a member of the military police), all of whom are friends of the girl's aunt.

He was handcuffed, beaten and tortured. When he tried to flee he was hit by three bullets.

Both the former girlfriend and her aunt, Marcia Padula Viana, were arrested on Sunday as instigators of the crime, and accused of hiring the assassins to kill da Silva.

A Couple Clips Of Interest

Apparently Tonight Show Host David Lameman takes being stood up by McCain personally. I approve.

And, I am a loyal follower or SXEPhil and Shay Carl's Video Blogs on YouTube. And here is the forth installment of their joint venture, Bam Bam Kaboosh.

Check out this excerpt from a kick-ass article from Wired.com:

Gene Therapy Restores Sight

With the help of gene therapy, two people who once were blind now can see.

The individuals -- their identities remain confidential -- are participants in an early-stage clinical trial of gene therapy for Leber's Congenital Amaurosis, a rare and untreatable form of congenital blindness.

Though the trial was designed to test the therapy's safety rather than its efficacy, its benefits were so impressive that the researchers decided to publicize their results.
